-HBHU a SMAX. ARROWS Monthly Book Circular f.e aiaiaa, Bv Jsr. At is. pauisaw. article was jawned that a few cents couid be procured upon, until the poor wife was.

at last, driven to seek assistance from tbe oftt'Ters of the city mission. A young man, who had innocently indorsed the note of a friend, related tbe following story to a reporter I would have been able to pay the note, if I bad been given time. I could earn fJ.CFXI a year, if permitted to do it, but this has ruined me. I am kept here purely out of spitSb I have nibt been long married. A few days ago my wife gave birth to a child, and I fear she will sink under her trials.

I cannot beip ber. mnch less see her. She owes a board bill, which, but for the kindness of friends, would bave left ber without shelter, while I remain here unable to assist ber. Here is the statement of vet another unfortunate: "My family Hve in a tenement-bouse. My wife, God bless her, was tenderly brrnghtupand well educated my children I bave always kept in comfortable circumstancesnow they are Just hving, that's alL My wife sews some, and makes artificial flowers she gets a little help from one relative; but I teU you what, since I have been behind these iron bars, as well able to work for tbem as any man, and when I know that on more than one occasion these little ones have gone to bed supperiess I tell you, sir, my agony is worse than death.

bv World has a very outspoken article on The Brigands of the Bowery. It is only two or three years since all Europe and all America were startled at the story of a party of English tourists who were kidnapped and" massacred at Marathon. Civilised governments were invoked to interfere srui sacnn.e control of the country in which such an outrage could be committed without an attempt either at prevention or retribution Not the least loud of these clamors came from New York. And now it is shown that in New York itself, more nearly within tbe shadow of the city haU than the Grecian massacre was within the shadow of the Acropolis, outrages, happily not yet as bloody, but at an points as atrocious and as audacious as the masacre of Marathon, can be committed with absolute impunity. In the most frequented of our thoroughfares, on the routes of municipal travel which are licensed by the state, and on which the license of the state makes it the duty of the state to take care that they are not made facilities for crime, the "life and property of law-abiding men are no more safe after midnight than they are on the plains of Greec- or on the plains of Arizona.

Thieves and bruisers enter the horse cars at their own wUl, demean themselves in them as they choose, snd leave them without an attempt at hindrance, no matter of what crimes they may have been openly guilty during their stay. Tbe newspapers for days bave told the story of these crimes, extending all the wav from mere drunken disorder and boorish insolence to robbery and murder. And the half bas not yet been told. We have the best reason for believing that the drivers and conductors of street cars bave more tales to tell than have been told of the crimes which happen nightly within then-sight, which they are powerless to prevent or to avenge, and which in by far the greater number of cases never come to the 'knowledge of the police or of the newspapers. It is the literal fact that in those streets which the street ears traverse, and which most of all need watching after midnight, there ia no interference and no terror of the law to prevent criminal passengers upon the street cars from fcriowing out their own brutal instincts, at the cost of peaceable passengers, to whatever species or degree of crime those instincts may inspire them.

In not one of the outrages upon the street cars which our columns have recorded forthe past few days have the officers of the street car in which it was committed, or the officers of police who were charged with the good order of the district in which it was committed, effectively struck in to keep the peace or to punish a breach of it. The man whose occasions take him upon a street car late at night in what boasts itself to be the civilised city of New York takes his life in his hand as truly and is left to his own strength for his own protection as absolutely as if he went out at night alone in the wildest regions where savages dwell alone. sTes But the immediate offenders and the most flagrant in these present cases are the managers of the street car companies. Some years ago a proposition was made from the superintendent of police to patrol the street cars at night. The adoption of such a proposition would have prevented the crimes which have now been committed.

But the managers of the car companies refused to let the detectives detailed to protect their passengers nde free on their cars, as they have always refused to provide their drivers and conductors with the means for protecting their passengers. This was to be expected of them. Their perfect and greedy disregard for the decent comfortof their passengers and for the decent subsistence of their servants has its logical supplement in this cynical disregard for the safety of the lives and property of their passengers. It is in vain to appeal to them. But there lies an appeal from them to the state which conferred their franchises upon them to promote a public purpose.

It is the right and the duty of the state to resume grants which have been shamefuHy perverted from the ends to which they were made, and it is a question whether that condition has not been fulfilled by a corporation which packs fifty people into a space meant for twenty, and which then refuses either to protect them or to permit them to be protected by the police. It is At eU i. Oi. duty of tUs stata to tulce. care that the charters it is now considering for schemes of rapid transit which shaU supersede the street cars shall not be liable to the same abuses, nor foster the growth of any more oppressive and monstrous monopolies.

Thk Tribctse has this paragraph: Does the postmaster-general recognise the importance of the notice he has had of the discontinuance on April 1st of the postal cars on nine of the principal railroads of the country 1 The time is close at hand and brief for making a And yet some arrangement must be made temporarily, or until congress can remedy the blunder of refusing tbe rates asked by the companies or making contracts with other routes. If the rates are exorbitant don't pav them. it won't do to let the mail service be obstructed or impaired. The discontinuance of the postal cars on these routes wiU seriously impair the efficiency of the service. It wiU obstruct business incalculably and that is a conseouenoe not to be tolerated for a moment.

The roads which decline longer to run postal ears it the present rates are those centering at this metropolis, and to obstruct the postal service of New York is to affect injuriously the business of the whole country. Possibly the railroads are unreasonable and domineering in their demands; but it is certain the postmaster-general is delinquent in not assuring us of facilities as good as the roads have heretofore provided. In an article cn "Mr. Tweed's case" the Tribune says: Mr. Tweed is reported to have said that If this investigation goes on somebody will get hurt.

We dare say that is true. Let it go on, then, with all possible vigor. The ruling party in the senate will do well not to stand in tbe way. If there are Republicans who sold themselves when the charter of 17(1 was (jassed if there are any who have made a compact for the new scheme which is now held in the background if there have been corrupt dealings by Tweed or his partner Murphy with the authors of tbe legislation of ihe last two years; or if there is any secret reason why Mr. Tweed was not long ago expelled, the people want the truth to come out, no matter who may suffer.

Bo an good man have "gothurt" lately that the public looks upon the agonies of state senators with an indifference that almost amounts to caUousness. The Tribune calls for a relentless prosecution of this inquiry, no matter who gets hurt. It arraigns llZ jemite tor gross dereliction of duty, in permitting the name of a shameless thief like Mr. Tweed to remain unchallenged on its rcU, and a district of this chj to remain without decent or honest representation, and substanciaUy without any representation at all. It submits that men who have clamored for Mr.

Tweed's trial in New York (in which demand we heartily concur) bave no excuse for failing to bring him to a trial that is wholly within their eontroL It insists that every day of Tweed's membership to the state senate bas been another day of for the state that every hour his case is neglected is an hour of infamy for tbe majority in whose hands be is. If he is a member, he should be expelled. If he is not a member, the seat should be declared vacant, and a new election should be ordere. to fill the vacancy. This senate has done neither, because it dare not 1 Its members, at this hour, tremble wben the notorious thief savs, "If you push me, somebody will get hurt.

We demand that he be pushed. If so melody gets hurt, so mucb the bet a ter. We call on the people of the state to watch henceforth every stage of these proceedings, and to spot every man who, under any pretense whatever, votes in anv way to screen the briber, or the men he bribed. And if there is one man in the senate who is not afraid of Mr. Tweed's hurting him, on that man, in the name of anoutratsd people, we call to raise the question of this thief aright to membership in the senate of the state of New York.

The Hkraui, under the heading, "Our Street Cars Another Fearful Outrage," says: At a time wben the public mind is filled with excitement regarding the fate of Foster one would naturally have concluded passengers had little to fear on any of the hues of the city. Not so. however. On the morning of Tuesday a scene of violence was witnessed on the Third avenue hoe which shows that the rowdy classes of this cuy have benefited hule by the teaeniuga of the Foster trial and by the pending fate of the miserable man now iu the Tombs and within a few hours ef his death. As tbe result of that violence, one man is bow ia Believue hospital, dangerously wounded, and the car conductor is wounded in the lip by a pistil shot.

The firing seems to have been of the most reckless kind, i'crsous who have visited this office and who were present on the car at the time, say that the excitouient a the ear was of the most fearful kind. No i.iifktifw what might be his or her fate, as shot after shot was Bred, The aff.ur is yet involved in soma mystery. hat we do knew for certain is that it is no longer safe to travel after midnight, if, indeed, at any hour, iu sume of our city hues cif cars. It seems to have come to this, that to go mto a car ie to take your life in your r.and. What is to be done 1 Must certainly rowdvirm ought to be mercilly pun-ibbeti.

Besides Dr. Holland's serial, "Arthur Bonni-eaatle, there is, by way of fiction, the beginning cf a very powerful story by Saxe Hotel, "The Elder's Wife," a sequel to Draxy Miller's Dowry; "Martin Lea's by Norman Holm; "Tbe Automaton Ear, a strange romance, by Florence McLandburgh and "The Flea and the Professor, by Hans Christian Andersen.

An Alabama paper thinks the disabilities of President Davis ought to be removed, that be may be sent to congress, now that Alexander H.

Stephens is going. Tbe Delaware senate has rejected a bill to remove the state capital from New Castle to Wilmington. New Castle is delighted, and WUmington correspondingly depressed. At the request of Governor Davis, the legislature of Texas has appointed, a joint committee to investigate the management of the offices of the state treasurer and controller. 1 Genera! Caleb Cushing has taken occasion recently to express the opinion that General B.

F. Butler combines courage and ability in a higher degree than any other man at present in congress. Now let's have Ben's opinion of Caleb. In addition to the New Hampshire election, just held, Rhode Island, Connecticut, Maine, Ohio, Iowa, Virginia, Massachusetts, Minnesota, Wisconsin, Mississippi and Texas elect each a governor and legislature this year. New York, New Jersey, Kansas, Pennsylvania, Kentucky, California, and Maryland bave general elections.

Six United States senators are to be made for the term beginning two years hence. Hundreds of men and boys are engaged at the capitol in Washington sending out daily through tbe mails tons of books and documents for members of congress, who are anxious to have them reach their respective homes before the expiration of the franking privilege. The basements and passages are filled with boxes in which to pack such parts of the immense masses of accumulated printed matter as have not already passed by sale into the hands of merchants and paper makers. The Bangor Whig, speaking the sentiments of Maine loyalty, has a column article on the proposed mutilation of battle-flags, closing as follows The men who periled life and fortune for their country bave still some rights which defeated traitors are bound to respect and while the American people will guard and honor aU that is noblest in the fame of Charles Sumner, neither be nor any other wUl be permitted to lay a sacrilegious hand upon those legacies of the dead which are at once the trophies and the inspiration of a living patriotism the glorious battle-flags ot the Union.

On di'i, that when Miss Nellie Grant was in London, 'Israeli was asked whether he thought the American princess pretty. I can't say," replied the author of "Lo thair, fori have only seen her once; she was then sitting between Gen.

Schenck's two daughters, and I thought she had some indirect claims to good looks. The heart-smashing Italian count Liuga Damn, who was engaged to a Boston girl and a Hartford lady at the same time, and who disiairded the former, was formerly a resident of Chicago, where he was a music-teacher. The lire burnt the count out and he departed to the East in search of a new field for his music and some foolish rich girl's money. 1 The New York correspondent of the Boston Journal writes this of Vanderbilt: The commodore, as his satellites love to can him, is a very daring driver. It is difficult to suit him with a horse, because he demands one that not only has speed, but is gentle, and who will not puU his arms off.

He rides in a sort of sulky, which is a three-quarters! trotting wagon, with an enormous high top. i It is a mere spider's web anyhow, andj as tittlish as can well be conceived. A I puff of wind seems enough to topple it: over. Vanderbilt is quite as bkely to drive' on one side of the road as the other, and is perfectly indifferent as to the rights of others. Several men, as daring as himself, have come in collision with him, and he has come very near being run into a dozen times this season.

But he never gives way, and takes it for granted that everybody will give him the road. Last Wednesday he came tearing along down the lane, as usual out of line. He as run into by a fleet team and knocked into a heap. His wagon was broken all to smash, and if his horse had star'ed, he must have been killed. Tbe animal was in a foam, and trembled from head to foot, but did not move.

The commodore, slightly cut on the fu.ee, was carried to his home by some of his friends. CONTEMPORARY OPINION. From the Metreswiitaa Press ot Yesterday. Th Tnaa says of Imprisoment for The resolution offered by Speaker Cornell, and unanimously passed by the assembly, requesting the sheriff of New York to furnish a bst of the persons at present confined in Ludlow Street jail, and a statement in detail of the charges against them, will, it is to be hoped, have the effect of causing such changes and modifications in the law relating to imprisonment for debt as shall meet with public approbation. Tbe law, as it now stands, authorises tiie courts to issue orders of arrest in all cases where debie have been fradulently where goods purchased have been secreted, or conveyed away in a suspicious manner, or where an agreement in trust has been violated.

Under it, all defendants accused in eivil actions of assault and battery, breach of promise, failure to pay alimony, slander, false impreonment, ean be arrested and held in custody until bail has been fur-niched. If by any ehanee bail cannot be pro-, cured, the pnsoner has no hope of release unless the plaintiff relents, a possibility so remote as to be scarcely worthy of consideration. The wide latitude thus given, during several years past, baa been taken advantage of in a shameless by unscrupulous lawyers. Wben the imprisonment for debt law was repealed by the legislature, the exceptions referred to were made for the purpose of reselling men who hve by false representations. The probability that honest men might be persecuted through it was evidently not thought erf.

Yet the instances in which it bas worked in this way are very numerous. If a struggling store-keeper should obtain a few humired dollars' worth of goods from an unscrupulous dealer, and, through a succession of misfortunes, such as the death ot a wile and children, should be tumble to pav, his creditor would ouly have to engage tie service of a tricky lawyer, swear to an affidavit charging fraud, and bave the wretched debtor carried oil to Ludkw Street jad. rieveral cases, showing very great cruelty oo the part of such credi-Uirs, have, from time to tune, been rsportnd in these columns. That of a resident of Astoria, IMUUvd McLeod, was particularly aec'iing. Under a suspi.

ion that he had in cuutemplatiun a sudden departure from tiie country, one of the feast of his creditors procured his arrest, and threw a prosperous business into the bands of the sheriff and tus plundering deputies. The goods, although sacriiiusd at loss than a third of their oust, brought sniUeieut lo pay all the indebtedness, and Mcleod as released, alter two weeks of painful fusese. The shock to his nerve was so severe that he took ill and died, leaving wile and three cludroa totally unprovided for. Another case, of a similar nature, was that of a man who bad been arrest! for a debt of (loo. He.

too. had a wife and three children, but no projjerty. During the first few wteksof his imprisonment, the necessaries of tofe were obtained for his family from the sale of household furniture. Every ards wiH I especially grateful We ask tbe wildest alarmist among tbe Spaniards not to fear that Mr. O'KeHy will appear at the head of any other columns thaa those of tbe Herald or that he will wave anything except the Beg of truth.

Mr. TSArn says, I will make tbe lunatic ayhim howl wheal I get there. It is quite difficult to do so satisfactorily, and the trouble with Mr. Train win be that the outside world win know nothing at all of his amusement. If.

however, Mr. Train sueeeeds in drawing attention to the bad treatment of lunatics, as be did to that of the prisoners in tbe Tombs, he will bave accomplished much good. But, by the way, where is Mr. Train! And is he never to be given a trial I We find the following in the Sun Monday afternoon. Dm.

William Hammond and Tbaddeua Cross, the board de inquirendo appointed by Judge Daly, by request of District -Attorney Phelps, so determine the condition of George raocis Train, forwarded their report to the district-attorney. It was very brief, merely declaring Mr. Train to be subject to delusions, irrational to his conduct, and of unsound mind. Dr. Hammond subsequently said to a Sim reporter that be did not think Mr.

Train in a dangerous lunatic, and had refused to sign an affidavit that he onght not to be at large. He thought Mr. Train a timid man, except in his language? and was of opinion that he ought to be at once released from confinement, as that tended to aggravate his malady. Mr. Train, he said, is a man of great genius and tine education.

His chief illusions were that be was to be pagan dictator, was tbe only man who eould save the country, ard was "the leader of the Internationals. The reporter afterward visited District-Attorney Phelps, in order to ascer tarn what action he was going to take on the report of the medical board. Mr. Phelps said that he should lay the report before Judge Daly, who, as first judge of the court of common pleas, acted as county judge, and under the provjsions of the statute of ISfcJ he has power either to impannel a jury to decide the question of Mr. Train sanity, or to send him to theUtica inace asylum on his own commitment.

Mr. Phelps has no doubt that Mr. Train "had a screw loose somewhere, but be thought him harmless, and not subject to hallucinations fraught with danger to any one. Tbe medical commission has made tw'a visits to Mr. Train, the last one, on Monday, receiving extra official sanction through the action of Judge Dowling, who went with the doctors to Mr.

Train's cell. A physician, who bas known Mr. Tram a long time, and who has seen him almost every day during his incarceration, says that Mr." Train is not insane. 4 Continued confinement will make him so, added the physician. He should be tried or released, for humanity's sake.

The only difference between Mr. Train and other men is that the persecuted man says what he thinks, while others say what they think the public desire to hear. If the world was more advanced Tram's sanity would not be questioned. He has legions of friends, and they will defend him against the machinations of his enemies. Mr.

Train says very little about the doctor's decision. He thinks that there is a'eonspiracy to get him into an asylum, and he will quietly submit to the authorities, relying upon his friends to see him vindicated. His friends are aroused, and they wall make a fight that promises the strongest kind of a diversion in Mr. Train 's favor. FASHION NOTES." A Baltimore Jenkins tells us that the prettiest lady and the leading belle in society there just now is the daughter of a ear conductor.

It is one of the latest fashions for bridesmaids at church weddings to wear bonnets corresponding in color to their toilettes. They have revived the high pointed heel in Paris just as it was going entirely out of fashion here. Things have settled down at Washington since the inauguration. Socially it is very dull, and parties and receptions are few and far between. Long pendant ear-rings have finally gone ont of fashion.

Now the ladies are wearing studs on the lobe of the ear, or small drops of gold about the size of a cherry. The exodus of New Yorkers to the South has been quit extensive of late. Savannah is crowded, and from all accounts our citizens there are managing to enjoy themselves amazingly. Some of the spring bonnets are of the most curious description and style. They form almost a point over the forehead, and are a fine combination of lace, feathers, flowers, jet and hair pins.

Organists now-a-days who perform at fashionable church weddings are furnished beforehand with a list of the music which the happy couple desire to have discoursed on the eventful occasion. India shawls are all the rage at least Tnra iiu can aitord them. The more green there is in an India, and the lighter it is, say those who profess to know, the more valuable is the article. A series of very charming 6aJs dansanfes are being given in Paris this season by Mrs. George H.

Pendleton of Ohio. They are said to be superior in point of excellence and style to all other entertainments under the auspices of the Paris-American colony. They have in Paris a dapper little fellow who styles himself a "finger-nail artist," and boasts of credentials from nearly all the European crowned beads. He does an excellent business, and makes old nails look almost as good as new. "We hear of a lady who was married in Philadelphia last week who wore a dress of white cut Lyons velvet.

The train was fully three yards in length and was trimmed with lace in great profusion. The dress was made by Marten! of Paris, Worth 's new rival, and coft, says Mrs. Grundy, 000 gold. TIIE PRESS. WMtelaw Reid has been re-elected president of tbe Lotus club.

It is whispered in literary circles, says Judy, that Mr. Carlyle's works will shortly be translated into English. Tom Nast, the caricaturist of Harper's Weekly, sailed for Europe Wednesday. He proposes to show up the corruptions of the rotten monarchies of the old world for the edification of the readers of Harper. The Chicage Times paid $2, 414, for special dispatches in January, and 2, 4M for the same in February.

Its regular payment to the associated press fund, is S378. It claims a circulation of 8, 000 more than any other Chicago daily. You never can ten where an advertisement may strike. The following is a case in point: A Brooklyn lady who had resided for some years in Peru read in a copy of the Brooklyn Daily Eagle, which she received, an advertisement of a certain city merchant. She is now on a visit to her home, and called 1 utt Thursday upon the merchant, stated where she read the advertisement, and made a purchase of the goods advertised.

The Phrenological Journal for April ia before us. The following subjects seem to us of special interest Charles P. Kimball, the well-known Carriage-Maker of Maine;" Inborn Strength, aa essay on the elements of human advancement Educating the Sexes Together;" "The Foremost "From Whence to No Whither, or the Future Considered;" AUmentiveness, its Use and Abuse illustrated Wilder on "Its Worth to Me, a Frank Admission;" A Dream Not All a "A Temperance Allegory;" "Tejuda, the President of Mexico;" "Tbe Civil Serrica and Its Tendencies;" "The Cheerful Face;" Thomas Guthrie, D. "The Maple Tree;" "Origin of Fool;" East Tennessee and Its Resources, etc Mrs. E.D.

E. N. South worth, the prolific novelist, is thus paragraphed by an interviewer: Mrs. Southworth is about five feet two inches in height, rather broad and square in form. The top of her head is square and massive in shape, and a full view of her face presents the same general cnarauteristics.

Her BUMiUt is quite large, with very thin, closely shutting lips, and she has a trick of every now and then opening and closing them, as if they were not yet tightly enough compressodl Her profile is very fins. Forehead not too high, nose straight and good sized, with well cut chin. We asked hr how many books she had written, fcihe said: "I am now engaged on hit rt -secou-i, and am frighten- ed to think bow much trash i have been guilty uf sei tiling out into the world. She Las written for lbs New York Leditr twenty years, and I casually kstrned from others that her income was jo, OUi a roar, it may, however, be mora, or may be less, fcius was suffering from weak eyes the evening ws called, fruui having taxed thctn too heavily during the week, tai said, they never had troubled bar before. Tbe record ot "An Hour Among the Greenbacks, in Scribner's for April, is as eutertsiiiing aa a story.

The unnamed author certainly writes from a thorough, acquaintance with his subject, and gives, with the aid of pictures, the best account yet published of the workings of the currency department. Miss Proctor's profusely illustrated desonp-ticn of "Moscow and Southern Bussia' will be read with pecubar interest at this time, as wtU a the skeUb of "-An Emperor's Vacation at Vichy." Among the illustrated papers aiw an article on the American prim legislature against selling Uquor. The number of letters received in reply led the post-office authorities suspect fraud, and bene the arrest, which, however, was no sustained. The trick recommended is as 1. You will keen no liquor or fntoxi-ratinR drinks for ie or to srive away, or as otherwise specUied in the temperance biB, and w-iU poet bills announdng this fact in your bouse.

Erect a sidebnard In one part of the pof m. on which set liquors, ices, cigars, lemons, etc S. Near tbe door erect a eiirar ease be particular to take no pav fr anything but eitrars or tobacco. If parties help themselves to the sidetxiard too often without patronising the ciyar case, it is optinnal whether you permit them to make a loafing place of your bouse or not. 4.

Section 17 provides that yon shaQ be a person keeping liquors for sale before you can violate the law. We have no doubt the law win sustain Mr. Anderson. There can be no doubt, to be sure, that liquor exposed in this way is kept for sale but the courts have far more re spect for the cheap smartness known aa a trick than for their own common sense and dignity. FoerrH, we learn from the Herald, was comparatively calm on Tuesday.

He read the governor's letter, in the papers of the morninc and criticised it to some extent. "There, you see," said he, "he says I struck Putnam two blows, but I only struck htm ouoe. I did not strike him a second time." And so the unhappy man went on to argue his hopeless ease wben there was no tribunal to hear and his appeal had already passed ineffectual before the judgment seats of men. The general impression to be gain ed from hearins him as he reviewed the gov ernor's opinions was that he felt all hope to be gone and that the letter was the fiat of his fate. His appetite, continues the Herald, has noticeably failed within the past week, and since last Saturday he has apparent ly been sinking in physical strength as well as in fortitude.

Tbe opinion expressed by offi ciala about the Tombs by those who see the mm(o ximiiy is i Lint ae is lsiung so ias Hi nerve that some difficulty may, perhaps, be experienced in carrying out the sentence on Friday. He is depressed in the extreme, and constant meditation upon the terrors of his position seems to be breaking him down without his consciousness of the fact. The evils of the law's delay are too apparent in this case. Tbe man, to say nothing of his family and friends, has suffered tbe agony of a hundred deaths in the terrible suspense which he must bave sustained, in the alternate hope and despair which must have followed each other in succession during the few months just gone. Can there never be an end of this everlasting delay and circumlocution Can there never be a case in which punishment will speedily follow crime A BKMARKtm.it ARTiCLa in behalf of Foster appears in the Bun of Wednesday, based on the appeal of the jurors presented to the gov ernor on Tuesday.

No such document as that, says the Sun, was ever presented to the executive, in whom the pardoning power is reposed, If this does not make a case for commutation, then there can be no such case the imagination can hardly conceive of one in which that power ought to be exercised. We are then told that 'there are signers to this protest who stand every whit as well before the community as the- governor himself, and whose veracity no man hving will have the hardihood to assault, or the meanness to question by covert insinuation. This protest of seven jurors, made under the solemnity of an oath, may, therefore, be taken to be absolutely true. There is no safety, no propriety, and the governor would not be justified in regarding it differently. It is well known and established that two of the jurors who are now dead the death of one of whom, a manly fellow, is said to have been hastened by remorse or uneasiness about this verdict would have joined in this pro test had they been living.

The Sun pro ceeds to argue the legal points of tbe case, and concludes with this paragraph Can God approve of an execution on mere technicality, or the shedding of blood by the mibtaKe oi a jury iu sucn a mistake, when set forth by jurors themselves under a solemn oath, be sufficient justification, or even an excuse, at the bar of an intelligent American public, or at the last dread tribunal atjwhich all must appear, for a deliberate, cold-blK)ded execution Governor lix himself can have no doubt that blood is a hateful kind of red for a man to have on his hands. If he tramples this sworn protest of seven jurors ITt the Hiwt wih tn i 1 t-i rjr personal hauteur, will he not have that foul blot stil ifremaining on his palms As we remarked yesterday, the governor is not easily scared. And Mr. Farter will die to-day. TBI new postal, law, knownas "the repeal of tbe franking privilege, exempts from the free list a large amount of matter heretofore merely a burthen upon the mails.

AH mail matter known as free matter under existing laws on which postage must be paid after June 30th, by reason of this repeal, is classed under twelve heads, as fol lows: First, all mail to and from the president and vice- president second, official communications to or from cabinet or bureau officers, chief clerks or franking officers of each of the executive departments third, all letters or printed matter to or from members of eongrejs, secretary of the senate, or clerk of the house of representatives fourth, petitions to congress fifth, copyright matter to librarian of congress, if so marked on the package; sixth. Smithsonian institution mail; seventh, exchanges between publishers, one copy of each publication not to exceed sixteen ounces weight eighth, weekly newspapers to actual sub-scnliers within the county where published uicth, notices from postmasters of refusals to tiike publications tenth, dead letters returned to writers; eleventh, medals, certificates of thanks or other testimonials, awarded by legislatures to their soldiers: twelfth, under a special act of congress, passed some years since, all mail matter to and from Mary Lincoln, idow of Abraham Lincoln, during ber natural life. The question has arisen whether the abolition of the privilege applies to Mrs. Lincoln. The Tribune judges that 1 this was a vested privilege, somewhat in the nature of a eon-tract, and that congress cannot therefore interfere with it.

If this judgment is correct, the persons now having the franking privilege are: The president, vice-president, senators, representatives and delegates, secretary of senate, clerk of house, cabinet and bureau officers and their chief clerks postmasters, for official communications only, aa also collectors of internal revenue, and Mrs. Lincoln. Under the present laws, free matter is carried at a cost of about tW tier annum, while the estimates made for amounts to pay actual necessary official postage for the ensuing fiscal year is about tl, 500, OXI. Mr. 'Kelly, the Herald commissioner, has reached the Cuban camp, after unnumbered dangers and the lues of his horsa.

We have not room for his account, given under sueh startling headings as Pushing on Afoot and not IWing to Halt, "On the Trail of Ceepedea, with ha "Horse Captured After a Bloody Battle, "Seen with tbe Well Dressed Eye, Sabre in Hand, etc etc but the following dispatch, which found its way in some mysterious manner to the Commercial Advertiser, gives a fine idea of bis perilous adventures: CaMPAMiurro ok Corfore Sako, 1 sa LiBKK, eb 4, 15TS. I am pushing bravely onward aa fast as I can. I teel an ill pulse from behind that is irrtaustibiA. The sensation is pwcuiiir, but I do out mind It. 1 have two of Nolan's Young Man's Best Companion yet untouched.

I had fallAn aaieep on his beck, and the guides think be must have det-ul something ia my 1 resxh. For tbe present, adieu Don Carlos i iusuuel Cespedea awaits me.

And the O'Kelly is by no means out of danger. An effort ia making to clothe him wun the authority and power of aa army of O'Kelij a and, looking upon him as a part of the rebel force, to bang him on sight. Last of all, says the Herald, in a long article, "there cuts false witnesses, who say that in an attack by Spaniards on a strong iusm gent position, and in which tbe Spaniards would appear to hav bees worsted, the Herald commissioner was seen -waving on the rebels with tbe sabre of bis aire. Ws oould afford to smils at this figment of tae Spatush brain were it not test ws see ia tt a deliberate attempt to make out, at all hazards, a ease against the neutrality of our oomuiisskiaer. Tbey flatter themselves that by a hule bold lying tbty can raise up such a feeling among the most bloodU jsty of their class that the SAsswKMiatioa of 'Kelly would take placet on his return, with or without orders.

Tbe art was introduced I Mr. ISatcboIlcr a mifitn for a bill ti ire tine ctnnpaoira errei lxMirdc for warning at raiimaH rjwin.ra.

It provide that railway companies shall pbw flagman at rtrwrt or tiiirhway crossings in every ity or Tillage in the stata thrrmj-h wbirh tln-ir track ran, to warn travelers of tbe appmarh of train. Tbe limit to this rejiiisilion in, that surh T-ing pbail on tiie surface of tbe Tfvi and a), ail be at main or important tborrrachfsre. To 1-t the latter point city or iilee authorities mar. by resolution, comtnan-i railroad corjvo rations to station icrm-n at any rrosainjr Uiry 3icrnate. If the rnanacrrs of tbe railroad consider mh a rwfni'itsrm tinreaaonable, they may apply to any jn-ijie at for relief, and the lwii'tn of the ronrt will settle the master.

IJaiirjai corporations have eibibited in this matter of crtxw-Jnaii an utter disregard of life, as cinntiared with tbe reduction of Tbr sr puliry wems to ts parsimony in dealing with all things but human The recklessness which Mr. RatcheUer's biM intended to check lias not, perhaps, been more siirna'iy and disastrously illustrated in any phut in (be country than in our own ity.

CEISIXAL.S. Tbetc if, progressing through the legislature, a remarkable bill in regard to the pun-ibmettt if criminals. It is intended, louhthfc, to lie u-d a a nie.uis of reaching IboMC men who, in capital case, escape the Consequeucc of llit ir rimes on the plea of insanity. The popular indignation against the men who commit murder under the effects of emotional insanity is, perhaps, suf-fi ient warrant for the introduction of this lull, and )it we can scarcely approve of it. The measure provides, that whenever on an iudicujit nt for a capital the jury arjuit the defendant on the jrround of in.a-iity, tiuvh iiitauity shall be deemed to continue, and the court in which such acquittal lia'l be had shull mnke an order that the jh rin so acquitted ball be confined in one of the ttate lnnatic asTlums, or in tbe tte lunatic asylum for inaue crira-icats at Auburn, for a period of not leiw than fiftet-n years, and until it shall be proved, in the manner provided by law, tbi the Oelcncam na been retorel to aauity."
